    Uh, no.

    She was a REAL air traffic controller.

    She really seems to miss it, too.

    So then you are able to hide a few of them on the move. I stand corrected.

    You made a -EV bet and let a known unethical welsher free roll you. Yes it's unlikely something would've prevented you from showing up, however there is/was a ZERO chance he was ever going to pay you. If you made that bet everyday eventually something would prevent you from showing.

    IMO he played you like a fool and then continued to rub it in and punk you. You didn't expose him because everyone already knew he wouldn't pay up. He's sitting back just laughing at you.

    Either way....

    LarryS. proved conclusively that OAB was a liar and a welsher.

    He rode OAB like a mule.

    Now, who's the jackass?

    Listen who's talking, you coming here to defend a web site. Complaining on your beloved site about sock puppets (employment of all day long button pushers, jack-pots being won doesn't wash), now you moaning about the use of VPN's. You don't like this site, you don't like the bashing of WoV, it's founder or the slagging the mods receive, yet you come here, probably read most posts and participate.

    Hey the "discussion of the suspension list" is rather quiet without your participation, you crank. Go spy on your neigbours or beat your girl friend or something.

    Is right fella.

    It is a myth AmeriKKKa won WW2. I blame the respective education systems and the brain washing of history taught in schools. If I was educated in the USSR, then I would believe Russia won the war, if I was educated in China ditto, it's all a load of patriotic crap.

    AmeriKKKa certainly helped in a major way, but didn't achieve it all by themselves, as my black American ex nam vet neighbor likes to tell me. He's getting on now, but despite how AmeriKKKa have treated black people over generations, he has not a single bad word to say about his country, plus in AmeriKKKa everything is bigger and better. Actually he is semi-nuts and chooses not to live in his beautiful country for the last 40+ years, anyway I digress.

    What is surprising to an outsider is the level of patriotism you Yanks have, unprecedented. Brits certainly don't carry on like you lot do, flying flags on lawns, compulsory standing for the national anthem. Aussi's only engage in such behavior for racist political reasons (far right marches). With you yanks, it is the best country on the planet, why is it? Yes it is a rich powerful nation with a strong military because you spend more than the next 26 countries do combined, yet there is no free health care for it's citizens and certain level of your population live in poverty. China is fast emerging, soon it's economy will take over ameriKKKa's if it hasn't already. Brits are more laid back, don't trust politicians or government, half the country despises the monarchy and couldn't give a shit about nationalism or religion, you would never seen the national flag on car bumper plates.

    Yet ameriKKKa has a gun crazed population, trigger happy cops, extortion with your forfeiture laws, where you actually take physical assets to court? WTF. Border patrols far removed from actual borders, far less racial integration than most western nations (only 40 yrs since the ending of your apartheid), massacred the indigenous people yet they remain unparalleled patriotic (brain wash them from an early age eh), spy's on it's own citizens on an unprecedented scale, yet is the greatest nation on earth, better fly a flag, a Confederate one will suffice and it's my duty to celebrate the 4th of July.

    Your level of Patriotism from an outsiders prospective is strange to say the least, and outright dangerous as it has been demonstrated since the end of WW2. Personally and along with 50 ~ 60% of the population would never been seen dead in an item of clothing with my nations flag on it, or own anything which represents Royalty, i.e plate or cup (Queen Lizzy, Diana, Charlie). Having traveled through the US, I know people really don't give a shit, unless sometimes it's an outsiders pointing out the obvious. I'm pretty sure there are one or two here with cherished Michael Shackleford mementos in their homes :D

    Oh yeah, what's good about amriKKKa, your music and movies, especially the former, then again it did stem from African roots, from the likes of Miles Davies, John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, Count Basie, Ella, James Brown, Motown, Stax, NWA, Public Enemy, and Elvis. o_O

    Larry, there's no way in hell you only spend 20 minutes a day on GF and WOV. It might take me a minute or two to write a post, but most of my time spent on a forum is reading....I'd expect the same for anyone else...unless you just don't read other posts. Of course, that's not true, since you keep pulling up posts from WOV and commenting on them. It's not necessarily a bad thing to spend some time online everyday...I probably spend way more time on forums (WOV, BJTF, VCT, GF) everyday than you do. I don't really care, either. But then again, reading & posting on GF only takes up a fraction of my online forum time every day, with a majority on WOV and BJTF, talking about stuff that isn't a complete waste of time.

    No one's sitting here with a damn stopwatch timing you everyday, you're not that special.

    Wow, that's like proving the grass is green or people can drown in water.

    No wager was needed from Larry to "prove" OAB's an idiot. What would happen in the off chance OAB actually did show up and Larry had an emergency and couldn't show up? It'd be as if the New England Patriots put up a $100M free-roll against the USC Trojans to prove the Patriots were better....there's no way the Patriots come out ahead....either they win and look like total idiots, or they lose and look like even worse idiots.

    RS, YOU should now spend more time at Blackjack the voodoo forum (BJTF). With the lead fraud, the person responsible for "the feud" having recently been thoroughly debunked and exposed by blackjack math experts like Schlesinger, and announcing his departure from the site, the voodoo forum needs all the help it can get in regaining some credibility. You are one of only a handful of folks left there that has a clue what they are talking about and can restore some sense of credibility.

    Either that or all us blackjack guys head back to BJinfo, from which many of us came, which Josh Chan has purchased and re-opened.

    Chan, who bought WoO and WoV, also recently bought bj.21 as well.

    I wonder why he bothered, as his focus is online casinos, and these gambling boards are basically the antithersis of that?

    How does he play to recoup his investment and make a profit?

    I know all about people in the countries we helped in the 2nd WW denying we did that much for them. They have their version of history and we have ours. The French don't like us. That is, unless the Germans are blowing smoke up their asses. They had the biggest standing army in Europe. Hitler's war machine ran over them in two weeks. The English and Russians could not have defended themselves if the Americans did not give them the war material to do it. But just the war material was not enough. Americans would have to get into the conflict though we tried our best to stay out of it. If democracy was going to survive in the world we we're going to have to get in it.

    We lost over 400,000 dead including one of my uncles. You don't know the pain that caused my family.

    Your avatar says you live in Arnhem Land. That is a region in northern Australia. It would have easily been taken by the Japanese if not for MacArthur. ,As I said the Australians were willing to give up the northern half of thier country and defend the southern half. MacArthur, being the brilliant tactician that he was, knew the Japanese needed a staging ground to invade Australia. And that staging ground was New Guinea. He had the Navy put up a blockade around New Guinea and they starved the Japanese out. Then American and Australian forces went in and mopped up. Because of it Australia was never invaded. That's my version of history. You can have yours.

    I don't know much about it. I think the selling price was like $100,000. I payed something like $80 to be on that message board for a year. I didn't renew because Chan bought the site. But that is one stream of revenue they have. I think the selling of instructional material would be another stream of revenue. I didn't get a chance to see it but they must have put up banner ads to their affialiate casinos.

    I was only on the site for one year. But it appeared to me that the smartest gamblers in the world were on that site. The collective knowledge was incredible.

    Maybe it's the delight in the discovery of finding someone new who shares his higher intelligence level and enjoys the experience and camaraderie.
    Although that could be difficult depending on which chat board one is reading.

    He's clearly monopolizing the advertising space on every single independent online gambling forum possible. If he can't buy out an existing website to drown out everything with his online propaganda advertising then he will just start new ones, or open old dead ones. There won't be a website related to gambling that won't have his bullshit on it. Very obvious.

    OK, but the members of those boards seem not to have any interest in internet gambling, which is his bread and butter.

    I suppose the lurkers and newbies viewing the sites are his target audience, not the members.

    And while, you and I, don't like it very much, doesn't it make sense from his point of view? Particularly starting new sites and buying up dormant sites like occurred this week with BJinfo. I would think that very cost effective.

    As for overpaying (which in my opinion he severely did with WoO/WoV), I agree with MrV.....I don't know how he gets his money back, but maybe I don't understand the business. BJ21 which Mickey was referring to with his $100k price tag and membership fees comments, is a unique situation, because of that active paying membership, which would offset the purchase price that Mickey quoted.

    The odd thing to me is that these sites, with memberships made up of at least a reasonable portion of AP's (WoV) or 100% AP's (BJ21) seem like a bad fit for a company promoting online casinos and looking to draw new clientele. When Chan introduce himself at BJ21 earlier this year, he made the connection that he was a former AP, focusing on exploiting internet casino bonuses and that's why the blackjack, sports and poker sites that he is buying up is a good fit. That connection seems a stretch to me. o_O

    your obsession with how I spend my time says alot about your empty life.

    I only visit wov generally when someone here references something specific.or someone sends me a PM or email. I didnt know MrV was suspended till it appeared here. And on this site I look only at 2-3 threads daily. Not alot of reading. Maybe 5 minutes worth max of reading on this site.
    Unlike you, I dont read while using my fingers, trying to sound out each word out loud. If you spend more than 5 min reading on this board....you are a dullard, a mentally slow dolt. There is not alot of difficult material to stop and digest or re-read. Its rather simple content that can be scanned and digested quickly. Your posts are the simplest to digest....they say the same thing.

    so I leave the calculations to you and axhole. You are obsessed . That is an issue you have to work through. I wont help you with it.

    what would happen if you attained the reasoning abilities of at least a 13 year old? Your posts would be quite different

    Winning the bet set in motion the events that eventually got him suspended very shortly after I won the bet. I SET THE TRAP, ....he took the bait....and now he is gone.....and we all are better off . So you are welcome.
    He continually lied about me, MrV, Appi, ......and after using him as a punching bag, and getting him all frustrated,.....I lured him into betting me....and like a fish he took the bait......called me on something simple that I could easily win, ..I accepted the bet..and the rest is history. I played him like a cheap violin. And because of that he is gone.

    I am the one laughing. I am the one enjoying this board while he was suspended and then needed to use a sock in order to get his "fix" and got nuked.
    All set in motion by me....and my winning bet.

    I am already a winner with his absence

    I am the one smiling

    I have never registered on any site on any other name than LarryS

    And I am not aware of other sites you refer to. I visit the patrick site one a week, GG once a week.....I can get what i need from those sparsely active sites in less than 30 seconds each.
    I dont go to wov unless something is brought to my attention. I used to visit "discussion of suspension list" regularly...but that is dead as the shame list has been dismantled

    So you can put your stop watch away, or give it to RS as you mutually masturbate each other

    It doesn't really matter who stays or posts, it's in the numbers of advertising eyeballs that land on his first landing page to see his ads, let alone how the internet propagates everything in links, tweets, fb and every other stinking tracking cookie out there. The ads are out in front and that's all that matters, everything else is secondary. The goal is for your ads to come up in every single search engine and cross over website possible. I don't believe he's concerned about what's in the content of any boards on his sites, unless it's directly associated with online gambling itself.

    It may even relate all the way back to the old mail order from your kitchen table business model. Send out 10,000 mailers, get 100 hits and you've made money. I know, been there done that.

    There are formulas in marketing where they have figures ......if x amount visit a site, z number of people will click on a banner, and out of thse that click ont he banner, "y' would actually open an account.

    Alot of non posting people,...even if they read negative comments about online casinos .....are just looking for one good reason to open an account...they have made up their minds.

    So if they read message boards and read about someone who had a good day from a trip report to a real casino.....they might just scratch their itch by clicking on a banner if there are no local casinos near their homes. Just reading a trip report from an AP may be enough to cause the tipping point for their "buy in" at bovada. Heck, just a slight reference to winning could be enough. I think there are more trip reports than conversations that bash online casinos
